Joke of the Day - At The Circus

A couple took their young son to the circus and when the elephants appeared, the boy seemed very intrigued by them.

“Mommy, what’s that long thing on the elephant?” he asked.

“That’s the elephant’s trunk, dear,” she replied.

“No, not that. What’s that long thing that’s hanging between the elephant’s legs?” asked the boy.

Embarrassed, the mother replied, “Oh, it’s nothing, son.” She then left to get some hot dogs and sodas.

While she was gone, the young boy turned to his father and asked, “Daddy, what’s that long thing hanging between the elephant’s legs?”

“That’s the elephant’s penis, son,” explained the father.

“Well, why did mommy say it was nothing when I asked her?” the boy asked.

Taking a deep breath, the father proudly replied, “I’ve spoiled that woman, son!”

City of Fort Lauderdale Issues Precautionary Water Advisory

Fort Lauderdale - Earlier this afternoon, September 23, 2008, the City of Fort Lauderdale was performing routine maintenance on aeration system blowers at the Fiveash Water Treatment Plant. While the work was being done, less than a quart of lubricant accidentally spilled into an open water basin at the plant.

The City immediately shut down the Fiveash water pumps and began water testing to ensure that water quality was not affected. Initial test results are expected back within the next 24 hours.

As a precautionary measure, customers are advised to use bottled water for drinking and cooking. Customers served by City water are advised not to consume or cook with any tap water (even if boiled). Tap water may be used for washing and bathing.

PLEASE NOTE: The City of Fort Lauderdale Precautionary Water Advisory applies to all customers who receive water from the City of Fort Lauderdale. In addition to customers who live in the City, the City of Fort Lauderdale provides water to Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Oakland Park, Port Everglades Authority, Village of Sea Ranch Lakes, Wilton Manors, and sections of Davie and Tamarac.

In addition, customers are encouraged to limit their water usage to essential uses only and conserve as much as possible to help maintain water system pressure. Residents are asked not to irrigate their landscaping until the water system has been restored to normal.

For more information, please call the City of Fort Lauderdale’s 24-hour Customer Information Center at (954) 828-8000.
